Sweep The Moon Events: Encounters, Supplies and Timed Shops

Last updated:

Temporary events in Sweep The Moon bring supply drops, combat encounters, shops and minigames. Use their announcements and countdowns to decide where to go.

Event Signals and What to Do

Event Signal and action
UFO A landing announcement and green beam mark a combat encounter. Fight aliens and claim treasure; after the chest opens, the UFO self-destructs in 10 seconds.
Express Delivery An Earth delivery crash scatters free Supply Crates around the moon. Open them for rewards, which can include Cash.
Meteor Merchant A merchant arrives to sell robots and drones during an announced 240-second window. Check the shop’s remaining-time display and buy before departure.
Goblin Raid A warning signals an attack on the base. Equip the Ray Gun and defend against goblins that can steal resources and damage equipment.
Arcade A temporary Arcade appears near the base with a departure countdown. Enter to play minigames for Cash; an ongoing game pays according to the score earned when it closes.
Event Shop Look for the EVENT SHOP sign and the closing countdown above it. The timer shows how long the shop remains open.

Choose Between Combat, Shopping and Minigames

  • Defend first during a raid. Escaping goblins can take Dust and Cash, and attackers can damage the Lunar Converter. See Goblin Raids and base defense for defending and repairing the base.
  • Visit the UFO for combat and treasure. Once the Golden Key is found, anyone can open the chest and each player can receive treasure. Follow the UFO event guide for the key, chest and escape.
  • Visit the Meteor Merchant for equipment. Its robot and drone stock is tracked separately for each player. See the Meteor Merchant guide for stock, purchases and deployment.
  • Enter the Arcade for minigame Cash. Choose Lunar Blocks or Meteor Blaster and build your score before closing. The Arcade guide covers both games and their controls.
